Healthcare and Work

My employer is crying about people calling in sick because shocker: covid. That and a couple of his employees have chronic illness, not that he gives two shits about us to be bothered to know that. So he's implementing that if we call in sick we need a doctors note as to why. Well hurray. My anti-seizure medication just failed me today so I went home sick.

Next question, if my medication keeps failing, anyone know how to get on disability?
